Show THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1979 PLEASANT GROVE REVIEW, PLEASANT GROVE, UTAH THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1979 Annexation Meeting continued from page noted that only recently has larger numbers of city residents and Manila residents become vocal in their opi-nions and he noted the attendance at this meeting as an example of the in-terest and ppointed out that the mat-ter has been under discussion for over a year and a half, he felt that some time in the future the discussion must end and council action be taken on the matter. He noted that his decision will have to be based on the effect the annexa-tion will have on present city residents. Councilman West in-dicated that this decision will have to be based on the effect the annexation will have on present city residents. Councilman West indicated that he is over water and sewer and that in the request for annexation the sizing of the main lines are an important con-sideration. Councilman Peterson discussed the present services being provided by the city and felt that by annexation these people would then pay for these services and what other services would need to be provided would be of little additional cost. Councilman Reimschussel stated that the decision must be based on what is best for Pleasant Grove and what is best for Manila. Questions and comments were then taken from those people in atten-dance. When asked what area was be-ing considered for annexation it was reported that the area is the whole of Manila which includes property all the way to the south city limits of Cedar Hills and that the petitions received from the Manila residents represent the total Manila area. It was reported by Alan Doty, member of the Manila Planning Committee that over 50 percent of the property owners in the area have signed peti-tions for annexation to Pleasant Grove. Mr. Lynn Clingo noted that there have been petitions to annex to Cedar Hills being circulated in the area and that some of the people who have signed the Pleasant Grove annexa-tion petition have also signed the Cedar Hills annexaton petition.. It was reported that signatures on any petition can be removed by the property owners requestion removal, of their names from the peition. Asked if development problems would be greater because of the large increase of potential areas it was answered that the city has recently instituted a new development policy to adequately control these problems. It was observed that the developments will have to carry a larger share of the development costs since impact fees can no longer be col-lected by the city. Regarding adequate water to ser-vice the area, Mr. Boyd Fugal, Presi-dent of the Manila Water Company, reported that they presently have sufficient water to service 1800 homes and that they are now connec-tions or commmitments for 750 homes. He noted that the company is acquiing additional water rights. It was reported that the city has some unused water rights and also is ac-quiring additional rights which will be used to service Pleasant Grove. Asked if irrigation water rights can be converted to culinary use it was stated that a representative from the state engineers office discussed this matter at a recent meeting of water officials and indicated that many cities are acquiring irrigation rights which will be converted to culinary use, and because of the importance of culinary water the state will probably allow this change of use. Mayor Haynie read a letter from the Manila Water Company which ex-pressed concern about the water com-pany being divided if Manila were divided between Cedar Hills and Pleasant Grove. Regarding the question of a cost study on providing services to Manila, it was reported that Moun-tianland- s Association of Govern-ments had provided this type of study and taking into consideration the utility services which would be in-stalled on a "pay as you go" policy by developers that very little or no addi-tional cost would result because of this annexation. Concerning the zone to be placed on the area it was in-dicated that an agricultural zone would be proposed for the area and at the time a residenctial development was proposed, a change to a residen-tial zone would have to be considered. Regarding commercial or industrial zones the mayor indicated the people in the area through their planning commission would have to recom-mend the types of zoning for the area. The broadening of the tax base was observed as one reason a part of the area should be considered for com-mercial and industrial zones. Mr. Lynn Clingo recommended that an election by the Manila residents be held to determine what is desired by the people. It was answered that the petitions for an-nexation show the desire of the peo-ple, but should an election be held it would have to be arranged for through the county since the city has no jurisdiction in the area, and state law doesn't provide for elections per-taining to annexation. In conclusion, Mayor Haynie in-dicated that annexation of the Manila area will result only if a majority of the people in the area support the an-nexation and that there would be no additional costs to present city residents to provide services to the annexed area. He reported that a survey taken from citizens in the community by the Community Pro-gress Committee showed 37 percent of those surveyed favored annexa-tion, 17 were oppossed and 46 ex-pressed no opinion. This, he reported, indicated to him that a majority of ci-ty residents favored this annexation. Funeral Services Held for Emily B. Walker Last Friday Funeral services for Emily B. Walker, 83, who died last Tuesday, Sept. 4 in the American Fork Hospital of causes incident to age were held Friday at noon in the Grove Ward Chapel, under the direc tion oi Bishop Honald Norton.

Walker, Orem, five grandchildren and nine VOLUNTEERS Sharon Fullmer and Janice Warnick are two PTA Volunteers who will call home when students are absent, asking why and what can be done. Pta Adds Important Jobs As Volunteer Parents shopping trips, hunting and fishing, as baby sit-ters and for reasons that are hindering the educational process of each individual pupil. The school and PTA urge parents to study this situation and help increase the attendance primarily for the good of the student. Two important jobs have been added to the Pleasant Grove High School PTA Work. 1. Volunteer parents call the students home con-cerning their absences at school. PTA workers have volunteered to be readers in English classes. The PTA will assist in reading tests and etc., that are almost impossible to finish. The attendance pro-gram is a National PTA program this year. Principal John P. Gourley stated, "the PTA have been really good about volunteer-ing." It is noted that fewer factors have greater in-fluence on school suc-cesses than regular at-tendance. It is therefore of great concern that students be in school each day. The primary concern is that students grow academically and emo-tionally, that they achieve well in each subject area and that they mature socially. A continuous effort of dai-ly attendance in school program promotes this growth. The school does not want to have children in school when they are ill. They should be home in bed. Sometimes doctor and dental appoint-ments keep children from school, but many times students are kept out of school for SHARPENING T SERVICES 1 Handsaws Retoothing Scissors J )k Qrcalar Saws Chain Saws Knives Axes, Hatchets Shovels, Hoes lc f: Lawn Mower Blades Ice Skates JP f Shears Wood Chisels And OthS yWe sharpen just aboutj Everything!
